Placed nine times but now 0-14, Royal Court has had plenty of chances and turning to blinkers may be a last resort. The four-year-old Castletownshend has done most of his racing here and been placed three times but he’s having a first ruin over 5f. The drop back in trip may help Curragh fourth Rita Levi, however, and Zippity was very green when only half-a-length behind Royal Court at Tipperary. NO NAY YELLOW showed good speed over 6f at Fairyhouse. He’ll know more today and can reverse that form with the older Sun Sign dropped to the minimum.
